Alan Branch fires CAA, hires Baratz

Summary of 2 articles · Updated Mar 27, 2013

Per a source with knowledge of the situation, Branch has parted ways with CAA, and Branch has hired Blake Baratz. CAA waived the five-day waiting period, which allows Baratz to instantly attempt to place Branch with a new team. Baratz did not immediately… (more) return messages for comment nor did his previous agent. Baratz scored some points when the Packers opted not to cut tight end Jermichael Finley, paying a $3 million roster bonus that will be followed by a $4.45 million base salary. Defensive tackle Alan Branch has fired Creative Artists Agency , which represented him in negotiating his previous contract with Seattle. Agent changes could become more common as the free-agency market languishes.
